my mom thinks im bisexual. some of my closest friends know iam bi. my mom is definatly right, but i really dont know if i should let her keep thinking or if i should just tell her im bisexual. alot of my friends know. and most dont have a problem. except one. is she a real friend ? or..should i drop her ? honestly, i really dont know. shes the only friend who didnt care. im starting to think i should stop being her friend if shes going to act this way. or should i just act the same way she is acting because she is straight ? i know, it sounds silly but it may actually work. i really dont know now…please please help me !!!!!!! =(

My mom thinks I’ve been dating my best guy friend for four years, my dad thinks the same about my best girlfriend. In truth, I don’t actually know which gender I am more interested in because I don’t feel much in the way of sexual attraction, but I want to feel close to someone.

Why would you tell people you’re bi when you’re not? STOP DOING THAT PEOPLE! Its hard enough for gay guys and lesbians to find boyfriends and girlfriends even without people pretending they like the same gender.

I guess this is pretty late. Maybe it won’t help you anymore, but someone else is going through the same thing somewhere, maybe this will help them.

If your friend can’t accept the fact that you’re gay, that doesn’t mean they don’t love you. That doesn’t mean that they don’t care about you. And that doesn’t mean that they’re not a good friend. If they believe that gay is not okay, don’t judge them. That’s how they were raised. Or maybe they decided that on thier own. If you keep being yourself, and being a good friend and good person, they will probably come to accept it. Then again, they may not. Ever. Maybe one day they will realize that they were wrong. Maybe they’ll live the rest of their life thinking that. but that doesn’t make them a bad person or a bad friend. If they care about you, that’s all that matters. If they try to “help” you into being straight, don’t take that as a bad thing. They truly believe that that is a good thing to do. If they try to “help” you, that means they care. Embrace that. But kindly tell them that there is no “fixing” this situation. It is what it is. And theere is nothing anyone can do that will change that, because this is you.

I was in this exact situation. -My mom approached me and I didn’t deny it. But I just kept telling her I didn’t want to talk about it. She still loves me from the bottom of her heart and I know it. I also know that she’s ashamed and hates the fact that I’m bisexual. But she still loves me. And she always will. That’s all that matters. -One of my closest friends is a Christian and couldn’t accept that I am bisexual. She is still struggling with it after a little over a year. But I know she cares and I know her intentions are good. She’s a great friend. She was just raised and believes that gay is not okay, that it’s sinful, and that it’s a choice. She’s slowly starting to see that I would never choose this for myself or anyone.

curious on your comment. Bisexual is becoming cool. You think this is for men and woman, or just woman? I’m male, just now becoming comfortable with my bisexuality. Some select female friends know, and are supportive. Not sure if I’ll ever “let everyone know”, what does it matter ,I’m me.

Good luck with you though, finance and best friend. I think we do have it best however, can feel strong feelings to all genders. You rock.

I(Male) am considering telling some of my male friends. a select few girlfriends know. One friend brought up a good point. I may then be referred, when not present, as “My Bi friend”, not sure how I feel about that

You know, the exact same thing happened to me. I thought I was bisexual for a long time because I had a crush on this tomboy, so I sort of “came out”, I guess, and told some of my friends that I was bi. However, as time progressed, I realized that I didn’t have a strong attraction to other girls – and I’m probably 90% straight. It wasn’t that I wasn’t accepted – it’s just that I thought I was more attracted for girls than I really was.

@Dave – My friend…established rules? rules by whom? normality? What IS ‘normal’? Different for everyone unless one judge’s another. Good to hear what your body parts were made for, I commend you for figuring this out, many have not. But no reason to tell another what their body parts are used for, not in the free world at least.

Almost everyone at my school believe I am bi and I don’t really want them to know I am actually fully gay.
It really annoys me whenever somebody calls me bi because everyone knows I am not straight, so the only option left would be gay. Anger stuck in me for hours after one mention of my false sexuality.

Fuck I hate it. At least one of my best friends know the truth (Only one whom I’ve ever told I am gay and not bi).
